SAN FRANCISCO (AP) Anthony Edwards hit a baseline 3-pointer with 1:19 remaining and scored 36 points, Julius Randle had a triple-double of 24 points, 12 assists and 10 rebounds, and the Minnesota Timberwolves beat the Golden State Warriors 102-97 on Saturday night for a 2-1 lead in their second-round playoff series.

Jimmy Butler had 33 points, seven assists and seven rebounds and Jonathan Kuminga scored 30 off the bench, but the Warriors still lacked the kind of rhythm they have with Stephen Curry on the floor.

Kuminga shot 11 for 18 as the Warriors again mixed and matched while playing without Curry as he nurses a strained left hamstring that he injured early in Game 1 on Tuesday.

Game 4 is Monday night at Chase Center.

Warriors coach Steve Kerr stressed his team had to win with defense and his team couldnt make the key stops down the stretch.

Edwards, who showed no signs of being hampered after spraining his left ankle in the second quarter of Game 2, knocked down a go-ahead 3-pointer with 6:16 remaining, while Jaden McDaniels made another key 3 with 3:20 to play.

Randle began 1 for 6 and missed his initial four 3-point tries before connecting 6:30 before halftime to put Minnesota up 39-29 and force a Warriors timeout. He shot 10 for 23.

Buddy Hields 3-pointer with 1:56 left pulled Golden State within 93-89 then McDaniels threw the ball away moments later but the Warriors were sloppy.

Golden State missed all five of its 3-point tries in the first half but still led 42-40, then Hield found some rhythm and scored 14 second-half points.

Draymond Green fouled out with 4:38 to play, whistled for his sixth personal trying to block a shot by McDaniels that appeared questionable on several replay reviews. Green sprinted down the floor to the Warriors bench in frustration then pulled on his warmup jacket and stood with hands on hips.

Green kept his emotions in check two days after a fan was ejected and being investigated by the Wolves whether he directed racially charged comments toward the Warriors forward. Kerr applauded Minnesotas handling of the situation.

Trayce Jackson-Davis moved into the Warriors starting lineup after he made all six of his field goals and had 15 points and six rebounds in Game 2 but played just 11 minutes.

圣弗朗西斯科（美联社）——安东尼·爱德华兹在比赛还剩1分19秒时投中了一个底线的三分球，砍下36分；朱利叶斯·兰德尔则有24分、12次助攻和10个篮板的三双数据。明尼苏达森林狼队在周六晚上以102比97击败金州勇士队，在第二轮季后赛系列赛中以2比1领先。

吉米·巴特勒（Jimmy Butler）得到33分、7次助攻和7个篮板，乔纳森·库明加（Jonathan Kuminga）替补出场得到30分，但勇士队仍然缺乏与斯蒂芬·库里（Stephen Curry）在场时所拥有的那种节奏。

在库里因左腿拉伤（周二第一场比赛早些时候受伤）而无法上场的情况下，勇士队再次进行了阵容的混搭和调整，库明加在18次出手中有11次命中。

第四场比赛将在周一晚上在Chase Center举行。

勇士队教练史蒂夫·科尔强调，他的球队必须通过防守来赢得比赛，并且球队在比赛的关键时刻无法做出关键的防守停球。

爱德华兹在第二场比赛第二节扭伤左脚踝后，没有表现出任何受到影响的迹象，在还剩6分16秒时投进了一记关键的3分球帮助球队反超比分，而杰登·麦克丹尼尔斯在还剩3分20秒时又投进了一记关键的3分球。

兰德尔开始时6投1中，前四次三分球尝试均未命中，但在中场休息前6分30秒时命中一球，帮助明尼苏达队以39-29领先，迫使勇士队叫了暂停。他全场23投10中。

Buddy Hield的三分球在还剩1分56秒时将金州勇士队拉回到93-89的差距，但随后McDaniels在几秒钟后传球失误，但勇士队的表现却略显松散。

金州勇士队在半场5次三分球尝试全部失手，但仍然以42-40领先，随后Hield找到了节奏并在下半场得到14分。

比赛还剩4分38秒时，德拉蒙德·格林因第六次个人犯规被罚出场，这次犯规是在试图阻挡麦克丹尼尔斯的投篮时发生的，而这一动作在多次回放审阅中显得颇具争议。格林沮丧地冲向勇士队的替补席，然后穿上热身夹克，双手叉腰站着。

在一名球迷被驱逐并由森林狼队调查其是否向勇士队前锋发表了种族歧视性言论的两天后，格林依然保持了冷静。科尔对明尼苏达州处理这一情况的方式表示赞赏。

在第二场比赛中，特雷斯·杰克逊-戴维斯（Trayce Jackson-Davis）全部命中了他的六次外线投篮，得到15分和6个篮板，从而进入了勇士队的首发阵容，但他的出场时间只有11分钟。
